Effect of isokinetic fatigue protocol of quadriceps and hamstring muscles on some of the predictive variables of knee anterior cruciate ligament injury [PDF]

بیولوژی کاربردی, 2018
Background and objectives: Muscle fatigue may lead to imbalance and dysfunction of muscles. On the other hand, measuring imbalances between muscles should not be limited to measuring strength as it is not only parameter indicative of muscle function ...

A Skin‐Adherent Magneto‐Inertial Wearable for Real‐Time Joint Motion Analysis

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
An imperceptible magneto‐inertial wearable couples a skin‐adherent PDMS‐NdFeB patch with a 9‐DoF IMU to track joint kinematics in real time and classify range‐of‐motion (Limited/Normal/Hypermobile) via a 1D‐CNN (95.3% accuracy). Wireless BLE streaming and a mobile app enable feedback.

A Soft Wearable Robot for Vertical Jump Enhancement via a Pneumatic Energy‐Storing Propulsion Actuator and Triarticular Kinetic‐Chained Structure

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The Jump‐Enhancing Textile Suit integrates the Pneumatic Energy‐Storing Propulsion Actuator (PESPA) and the Triarticular Kinetic‐Chained Structure (TKiCS). PESPA stores elastic energy under pneumatic pressure and releases it during the propulsive phase to augment movement.

Effect of stretching on hamstring muscle compliance

Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2009
To evaluate the effects of stretching on hamstring muscle compliance indirectly and directly.Twelve healthy men were instructed to perform passive stretching of one leg daily over 4 weeks, while the other leg served as a control. An instrumental straight leg raise was used to measure stretching force and muscle compliance indirectly with surface ...

Relationships among hamstring muscle optimal length and hamstring flexibility and strength

Journal of Sport and Health Science, 2017
Hamstring muscle strain injury (hamstring injury) due to excessive muscle strain is one of the most common injuries in sports. The relationships among hamstring muscle optimal lengths and hamstring flexibility and strength were unknown, which limited our understanding of risk factors for hamstring injury.

Knee muscle strength and movement biomechanics in individuals with and without knee pain after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A cross‐sectional study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Anterior cruciate ligament injury increases the risk of knee osteoarthritis, possibly via early onset of knee pain and changes in musculoskeletal function. This study compared knee muscle strength and movement biomechanics during walking and forward lunge between individuals with and without knee pain after anterior cruciate ligament ...
